How to divide (x^2+5x-36)÷(x-4)

Mathematics
1 answer:
mr_godi [17]3 years ago
4 0

Answer:

x + 9

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the divisor is in the form of <em>x - c</em>, use what is called <em>Synthetic Division</em>. Remember, in this formula, -c gives you the OPPOSITE terms of what they really are, so do not forget it. Anyway, here is how it is done:

4| 1 5 -36

↓ 4 36

----------------

1 9 0 → x + 9

You start by placing the c in the top left corner, then list all the coefficients of your dividend [x² + 5x - 36]. You bring down the original term closest to <em>c</em><em>,</em> then begin your multiplication. Now depending on what symbol your result is tells you whether the next step is to subtract or add, then you continue this process starting with multiplication all the way up until you reach the end. Now, when the last term is 0, that means you have NO REMAINDER. Finally, your quotient is one degree less than your dividend, so that 1 in your quotient can be an x, and the 9 follows right behind it, giving you the other factor of x + 9.

Justin Verlander of the Astros threw a pitch 100 miles per hour. How many seconds did it take to get to home plate. The plate is
castortr0y [4]

It will take 0.4 seconds to get to the home plate.

Given:

The speed of the pitch thrown by Justin is 100 miles per hour

The distance of home plate from the pitching rubber is 60.5 feet

To find:

The time taken by a pitch to reach the home plate

Solution:

The distance home plate from the pitching rubber = d = 60.5 feet

1 mile = 5280 feet\\1 foot=\frac{1}{5280} mile\\60.5 feet=60.5 \times \frac{1}{5280} mile=\frac{60.5}{5280}miles

The speed of pitch thrown by Justin = s = 100 miles/hr

The time taken by a pitch to reach the home plate = t =?

The speed of the moving object is given by dividing the distance covered from the time taken to cover that distance.

Speed=\frac{Distance}{Time}\\s=\frac{d}{t}\\100 miles/hr=\frac{\frac{60.5}{5280}miles}{t}\\t=\frac{60.5}{5280}miles\times \frac{1}{100 miles/hr}\\= 0.000114583 hr

In an hour there are 3600 seconds, then in 0.000114583 hours will be:

1 hour=3600 seconds\\=0.000114583 \times 3600=0.4124988 s\approx 0.4 s

It will take 0.4 seconds to get to the home plate.

Black_prince [1.1K]
Average must be 225 or more
4 games so
\frac{score1+score2+score3+score4}{4}  \geq 225
score1=192
score2=214
score3=250
score4=?
so
\frac{192+214+250+?}{4}  \geq 225
\frac{656+?}{4}  \geq 225
times both sides by 4 to clear fraction
656+?≥900
minus 656 from both sides
?≥244

min score is 244
